Stone Soup by Jan Eliot for September 12, 2011

Might be easier if you put the skate board under them.

Brings back memories….

Put the two of them in a mail sack and hang it out at the bus stop. The bus will come by and pick them up on a hook like the trains used to do in the old west.

They should have gone to bed early like we did as kids. Like around 9 PM.

Let granma use the hose on them, please!

grrrrrrr.. no patience for me. They need to grow up and take on responsibility!!!!!!!

Was going to suggest a spray bottle,.. but a hose will work just fine.. I used ice cubes on my boys along with the spray bottle…

Plus, you’ve got to work up to the early wake-up time that is needed for school. For the weeks preceding school start, I gradually wake up my kids earlier and earlier (and of course they go to bed earlier).

Kab Buch … My apologies

Hey, here’s a novel idea:

make the teachers work nights and send the kids to school when they’re actually awake!

9 pm??? I had to go to bed at 7:30 on school nights…had to beg my mom to let me stay up to see the end of “The Wonderful World of Disney” on Sundays!

School starts when bureaucrats want the teachers to be there so they feel they are getting their money’s worth. Not when the kids are naturally alert. They could solve this by having them do jumping jacks for two hours until the kids wake up.

Let them sleep, have you seen the SAT results.
